During excavation using the cut blasting method in deep rock masses, there are difficulties
resulting from the in-situ stress influences. This study uses numerical simulation methods to …

As drilling and blasting technique is applied in deep mining, its practical performance with
respect to rock fragmentation becomes a serious concern because high in-situ stress …

Blasting is widely applied in deep rock excavation. The effect of in-situ stresses on the
fracturing of rock due to blasting was investigated. A theoretical model was used to explain …

High in-situ stress can limit the generation of rock fractures induced by blasting, which
usually shows different states of rock fragmentation with those under low-stress conditions …

In-situ stress has complex impacts on the blasting excavation of rock mass, but the effect of
confining pressure on the crack propagation under repeated blast loading is still unclear …

Blast-induced radial fracturing is generally subjected to geo-stress. This study
experimentally, theoretically and numerically investigates the radial fracturing behaviours …

Understanding the behavior of rock under blast-and shock-induced loadings requires a high-
fidelity constitutive model. The present paper provides a detailed comparison study of three …

Ensuring the safety of adjacent pressure gas pipelines is a key issue in the blasting
excavation of foundation pits in complex urban environments. In this paper, the blasting …

A blast-induced damage model integrating the tensile damage model with the Drucker-
Prager yield condition is established. Based on the excavation of a large cross-section …

Herein, static stress is used to simulate high in-situ stress in a deep rock mass. The effect of
this stress on the fractal characteristics and propagation behavior of blast-induced cracking …
